What is this switch for?

Hi guys, on the right side of the pilots yoke is a toggle switch as you can see in the picture. Anybody have any guess what it might be for?  I thought it might be for the ejection seat but I tried it and it didn’t work so I ruled that option out.

activates the guns .30 caliber in the Mooney since we are a little smaller than the mustang which  had the .50 caliber.


Correct! In the later years Mooneys, like my 75, they moved the switch to the throttle.

My guess it is the map light. That is where mine is located.
